Radionuclides in Local Food Products of Kashkadarya Region and Priorities for Hygienic Control

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: This analytical review examines the results of radiological monitoring of 27 samples of local food products from Kashkadarya Region collected during summer–autumn 2025. A secondary descriptive analysis of summary Cs-137 and Sr-90 indicators from the supplied manuscript was performed. Mean Cs-137 values ranged from 1.9 to 7.5 Bq/kg, and Sr-90 values from 0.22 to 1.07 Bq/kg. Ratios of the means to the category-specific comparison values listed in the source did not exceed 4.69% for Cs-137 and 2.68% for Sr-90. A results table and a chart of relative indicators are presented. The limitations of group means, the need for product-specific detail and opportunities for further monitoring are discussed. These ratios characterize the groups studied but do not replace assessment of individual samples or population dose.
